Following on the check register thread (Another Boomer Thing that (Apparently) has Died Off), how many of you still balance your checking account monthly? For those who don't, what steps do you take to ensure that all transaction have been properly recorded, no incorrect entries were made due to bank error, and how do you keep track of your current balance including outstanding transactions?
Needless to say, I still take my monthly statement and use it to balance the account. It only takes about 10 minutes once a month so it's certainly not a big ordeal and I've caught errors numerous times.
